Catarì, Catarì,
pecchè me dici
sti parole amare;
pecchè me parle
e 'o core me turmiente, Catarì?
Nun te scurdà
ca t'aggio date 'o core,
Catarì, nun te scurdà!
Catarì, Catarì, che vene
a dicere stu parlà
ca me dà spaseme?
Tu nun'nce pienze a stu dulore mio,
tu nun'nce pienze,
tu nun te ne cure.
Core, core 'ngrato,
t'aie pigliato 'a vita mia,
tutt'è passato e
nun'nce pienze cchiù!
Catarì, Catarì
tu nun o saie ca 'nfino int' 'a na chiesa
io so' trasuto e aggio priato a Dio,
Catarì
e ll'aggio ditto pure a 'o cunfessore
I' sto' a suffrì pe chella lla'!
Sto a suffrì, sto a suffrì
nun se po credere
sto' a suffrì tutte li strazie
e 'o cunfessore ch'e' persona santa
m'ha ditto: figlio mio, lassala sta', lassala sta'!

Corazón ingrato
Language: Spanish (Español) after the Italian - Neapolitan (dialect)
Catarí, Catarí,
¿Porqué me dices
palabras tan amargas?
¿Porqué me hablas
y el corazón me duele, Catarí?
No te olvides que un día
Te di mi corazón.
Catarí, ¡no te olvides!
Catarí, Catarí, por que vienes
a decirme palabras
que me duelen?
Tu nunca piensas en mi dolor
Tu nunca piensas
ni te importa.
Corazón, corazón ingrato,
Te aprovechaste de mi vida,
Todo ha pasado
¡Y ya no piensas en mi!
